Easier is the first release from the pop-rock band since signing to Polydor Records in the UK, and Interscope in the US. The new track, which sees vocalist Luke Hemmings reach new heights, was produced by Andrew Watt, Louis Bell and Charlie Puth.
Of the new single, Hemmings said:
“Easier is the most confident we have been in the first song to be released off one of our records. Visually and sonically it feels like we took what we uncovered about ourselves as a band on the last album and honed in on that sound and aura. I truly believe that Easier is the beginning of the best era for 5SOS.”
Bassist Calum Hood added:
“Easier is the perfect depiction of the individual artistry within the band and how it comes together to create 5 Seconds of Summer. This record is something we have subconsciously always needed to release. Accompanied by the euphoria and rawness of the video, Easier is the best thing we’ve released yet.”
